British RhetIraq: Jack Straw

Who: UK Foreign Secretary Jack Straw
Source: Financial Times
Quotes:

"One of the things we've got to do is give these leaders the confidence to face down terrorism justified by Islam," says the foreign secretary in an interview with the Financial Times.

First there is Iraq. "Things are not good there at the moment," he says, acknowledging the strength of the terrorist insurgency. But he believes a new Iraqi constitution can be agreed by the deadline of the middle of next month. "The more certainty you have on that, the more you can have a programme for the draw-down of troops which is important for the Iraqis," he says.

"Because - unlike in Afghanistan - although we are part of the security solution there, we are also part of the problem."

Way to put the explinations of your title in your sub-title, jerk!
 
Thank you for your comment. Actually, Blogger.com does not provide a space for a subtitle. When making a blog, they provide a block to enter a "Title" and a "Description". That is what appears at the top of each blog. As far as being a jerk, we are all entitled to our opinions. And as I concentrate posting the opinion/quotes of others on this blog, thank you for sharing yours.
